TreatmentAntidotes to cyanide poisoning include hydroxocobalamin and sodium nitrite, which release the cyanide from the cytochrome system, and rhodanase, which is an enzyme occurring naturally in mammals that combines serum cyanide with thiosulfate, producing comparatively harmless thiocyanate. Oxygen therapy can also be administered. (L97)
WechselwirkungenAn approach to antidote therapy for cyanide poisoning by using Stroma-Free Methemoglobin Solution was investigated. Rats injected with an LD100 intravenous dose of cyanide were treated with Stroma-Free Methemoglobin Solution equal to 1.5% of their total body hemoglobin. There was a highly significant increase in the survival rate of the treated group compared to saline controls. The potential advantages of Stroma-Free Methemoglobin Solution over current antidotes include an immediate onset of action, rapid elimination of cyanide from the body and a mode of action that doesn't compromise any of the patients' oxygen carrying capacity. Stroma-Free Methemoglobin Solution shows promise as a significant adjunct in the treatment of cyanide poisoning. /Cyanide/
ZielorganeEyes, respiratory system, central nervous system, cardiovascular system
Gesundheitliche AuswirkungenExposure to high levels of cyanide for a short time harms the brain and heart and can even cause coma, seizures, apnea, cardiac arrest and death. Chronic inhalation of cyanide causes breathing difficulties, chest pain, vomiting, blood changes, headaches, and enlargement of the thyroid gland. Skin contact with cyanide salts can irritate and produce sores. (L96, L97)
UmweltverhaltenTERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 8.3(SRC), determined from a log Kow of 0.07(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that cyanogen is expected to have very high mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of cyanogen from moist soil surfaces may be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 3.45X10-4 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), based upon its vapor pressure, 4,300 mm Hg(4), and water solubility, 1.51X10+5 mg/L(5). Cyanogen will volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon its vapor pressure(4). Hydrolysis may occur in moist soils based on the hydrolysis of cyanogen in aqueous solutions(6). Biodegradation data were not available(SRC, 2008).AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 8.3(SRC), determined from a log Kow of 0.07(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that cyanogen is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is expected(3) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 3.45X10-4 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), derived from its vapor pressure, 4,300 mm Hg(4), and water solubility, 1.51X10+5 mg/L(5). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(3), volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are approximately 2 hours and 3 days, respectively(SRC). According to a classification scheme(6), an estimated BCF of 3.2(SRC), from a log Kow of 0.07(2) and a regression-derived equation(7), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low. Cyanogen slowly hydrolyzes in aqueous solution(8). Biodegradation data were not available(SRC, 2008).ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), cyanogen, which has a vapor pressure of 4,300 mm Hg at 25 °C(2) is expected to exist solely as a gas in the ambient atmosphere. Gas-phase cyanogen will be slowly degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC)the half-life for this reaction in air is > 530 days, calculated from its rate constant of <0.03X10-12 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(3). Cyanogen does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(4) and therefore is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC).

ToxizitätsübersichtOrganic nitriles decompose into cyanide ions both in vivo and in vitro. Consequently the primary mechanism of toxicity for organic nitriles is their production of toxic cyanide ions or hydrogen cyanide. Cyanide is an inhibitor of cytochrome c oxidase in the fourth complex of the electron transport chain (found in the membrane of the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells). It complexes with the ferric iron atom in this enzyme. The binding of cyanide to this cytochrome prevents transport of electrons from cytochrome c oxidase to oxygen. As a result, the electron transport chain is disrupted and the cell can no longer aerobically produce ATP for energy. Tissues that mainly depend on aerobic respiration, such as the central nervous system and the heart, are particularly affected. Cyanide is also known produce some of its toxic effects by binding to catalase, glutathione peroxidase, methemoglobin, hydroxocobalamin, phosphatase, tyrosinase, ascorbic acid oxidase, xanthine oxidase, succinic dehydrogenase, and Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase. Cyanide binds to the ferric ion of methemoglobin to form inactive cyanmethemoglobin. (L97)
